FEATURES AND FUNCTIONS
4.1.14. Courtesy (Pillar) Light Timer (optional feature)
Courtesy (Pillar) Lights can be
connected through the controller
if a 220V power supply is available
at the gate. The lights will switch
on every time the gate is given a
signal to operate and stay on for an
adjustable period of one second to
ten minutes (in increments of one
second) then automatically turn o.
The purpose is to bathe your entrance with light when you open the gates and increase
your security as you drive into your property – it also saves electricity as the lights only
come on when you use the gate motor.
Using the Pedestrian Opening feature will cause the Courtesy (Pillar) Lights to
ash three times before the gate opens. This is a safety feature to protect the
pedestrian.

4.1.14.1. Courtesy (Pillar) Light Control
The Courtesy (Pillar) Lights can be switched on from inside your home or oce by
connecting a pushbutton to the D5-Evo DOMESTIC, D10 or D10 Turbo controller.
For your safety this pushbutton switches only low-voltage signals. Press and release the
button for the lights to switch on for the dened period then switch o automatically.
Press and hold the button for three to four seconds for the lights to stay on permanently,
until you push the button again. If the Gate Status Indicator is tted to the intercom
handset, the LED will ash once every two seconds to indicate that the lights are on
permanently.
This feature can also be operated using your remote control. Simply set one of the spare
buttons on the transmitter to switch your Courtesy (Pillar) Lights on and o.
Please refer to Onboard Multichannel Receiver for more information on the various
functions you can operate with your remote control.
Low-wattage, 12V DC light ttings are also readily available and can be connected to the
system, drawing power directly from the battery. However, please ensure that the power
drawn by the lights and motor does not exceed the recharge rate of the battery.
Larger charger units can be tted to cope with the additional load – contact your gate
automation specialist or Centurion Systems (Pty) Ltd for more information.
